Wow that's awesome and it's not a bullshit rumour as well, thanks for posting this up, looks like while we're not necessarily attracting tons of merchants yet all the payment processors seem to be coming on board.

I wish we can have a list of all the large merchants whats using Stripe. I want to know which one i'm a customer of so i can email them to enable this feature. Its no longer a " new method of payment" to them. So i hope they can see no downside this time.

I was excited until I realized that Stripe doesn't do recurring payments: https://support.stripe.com/questions/can-i-pay-subscriptions-in-bitcoin-with-stripe

Coinbase seems like the better option if you want to do recurring subscriptions.
